I'm freezing my booty off right now but it's summer break right now for some of our favorite brothers Phineas and Ferb. They are back in a all new dvd, Phineas and Freb The Daze of Summer, that includes five episodes that will leave you wishing it was summer right now for you too!

Remember all those hair brain ideas you had over summer break when you were a kid? I once found a huge block of styrafoam like you would use under an older dock and along with some neighboorhood friends decided we were going to carve out a boat from the foam and go cruizing down our creek into the lake. Well we did get a sort of makeshift boat carved out but every time one of us got on it it flipped over. So much for our big plans.Phineas, Ferb, and their super cool pet platypus have so much better luck with their adventures.

My favorite episode on the dvd was Toy To The World, Phineas and Ferb are so fed up with the fact that their toys do everything, I knew these boys were after my heart. Anyways they decide that the perfect toy is just a plain ole wooden platpus styled after their own pet. Heh, these boys may just have the right idea. All the while their real pet platypus who is also strangely enough a secret agent is battling the evil Dr. Doodlenshmirtz. What a name.

creating all summer from gardening to making birdhouses to sitting outside making winter crafts for the tree- you know glitter and winter do not ix so its an outside project..we read and enjoy- tyedye and create

We enjoy gardening. We go to the store and pick out the plants, get the ground ready, plant them and usually my husband and son do most of the watering! We have a small garden spot, but just sitting out by the garden and watering the plants can be very mediating. This year I would like to plant our seeds indoors, instead of buying plants. A few years back we planted pumpkins and the pumpkins took over the whole garden. They were in the corn and the tomatoes..ahhaa. We enjoyed watching them grow. We gave all our neighbors a pumpkin or two. You know, when I was growing up, my friends and I stayed outside and cried when it was time to come inside before dark. I think getting children involved with outside activities is GREAT! Thanks for the chance! My son loves Phineas and Ferb.

my sister an I used to have to stay a few weeks in the summer with our elderly grandmother who lived way out in the sticks,this was in the early 1960s,an she dipped snuff,we used to pretend we were too an used hot coco mix to spit,I know it sounds gross now too,soooooooo,we thought we would try the real thing an snitched some of her snuff,I was 9 an my sister was 11,an we went behind the smokehouse,(she had a outhouse too)even grosser,an tried Grannys snuff,OMG,you talk about sick,not only did we get sick,we were sick for daysssss,an couldnt tell why,she called our parents an they came an got us early ,if we had todl what we had done ,we wouldnt have been sick,we would have a sore bottom to go with it,its funny now but we never did that again during our summer there

My craziest summer idea is taking my daughter to Seattle to see her Grandparents. We're spending the 10 days with her Grandma...in her ONE bedroom apartment!!! We tried to tell her we were staying in a hotel, but she freaked out...so...air mattress, here we come!

My daughter is a HUGE fan of Phineas and Ferb, and she would love this prize! My craziest summer idea??? I'd love to have a huge pool and have swimming parties for all the neighbor kids once a week, complete with snacks and drinks. I'd love to use it as a ministry outreach too!

My craziest summer idea is taking my kids to the local historicval farm/park and letting them take part in the farm chores so they will see they don't have it so bad when i tell them to turn off the tv and go outside to play!

We love Phineas and Ferb in our home. This would be a delight to win!When I was younger, my friends and I would play a car game named Ditch.We would hide from each other by going in cornfields, driving way too fast, and it is a miracle I am alive today. Cindijchoppes[at]hotmail[dot]com

One July when I was about ten years old (the age my daughter is now, scarily enough)I convinced my eight year old cousin that we needed to run away. We packed up all the essentials (Saltines, two Cabbage Patch kids, a Connect Four game, and dental floss) and took off down the street. We stayed gone for the better part of the day, convinced that our parents were frantic with worry. By about four that afternoon, thirst got the better of us (we packed crackers but no drinks!) so we headed home. Much to our dismay, no one had even noticed us missing! Our parents figured we were in the backyard the whole time. They weren't far off though. We were only about six houses down. :)

When I was a kid, one summer my friends and I decided to build a rocket ship and fly to Mars. Well, we never got off the ground, but we did end up building a huge clubhouse. That was pretty crazy. Thank you for the chance to win.

Our family LOVES LOVES LOVES Phineas & Ferb and we have seen every episode! My very favorite is the Backyard Beach Party episode (where Ferb does this excellent reggae song in the middle!) and my favorite episode on this DVD is IT'S A MUD, MUD, MUD, MUD, MUD WORLD, where Candice practices for her driving test in the monster truck arena the boys build! They're great! My summer plans were never anything as fabulous as theirs - I was mostly a geek girl who read all summer. Although sometimes we put together dance recitals with our next door neighbors and we played school...oh, and there was that time that I built a rocket to the moon and an atom bomb...but that's a different story all together...I didn't get busted...

Phineas and Ferb have THE best ideas! The kids and I will be sticking close to home this summer and having some adventures of our own. Our big project will be working in the garden and staying out of the way of our neighborhood Candace.

My daughter would love this! Our crazy summer idea I believe would be visiting my brother's family! So many kids and no control! So i am sticking to the beach vacation to relax!Carlacpullum(at)yahoo(dot)com

Last summer the kids thought I was crazy when (while they were gone) I made hundreds of water balloons for the kids, filled up wagons, buckets, the pool, etc...all different shapes and sizes too, so some of them didn't break so easy. Boy, did they have a blast.harmonden[at]wowway[dot]com

My kids and I always try to do something unusual during the summer.... something we wouldn't think of normally. Well, we found a skateboard park nearby and found out they were having lessons, so we're all taking the lessons and trying it out!pauline15_01 at hotmail dot com

One of the subway lines that run through my city ends at the whimsically-named train stop "Wonderland." Last summer, I finally made good on a promise to my nieces and nephews to dress up in full Alice in Wonderland gear and haul out to the end of the line for a "guerilla" tea party on the train platform. We got a lot of laughs. We also got a stern talking to by Transit Authority personnel.
